zagros Silver Member Username: Zagros Post Number: 384 Registered: Apr-06	Posted on Sunday, February 27, 2011 - 22:58 GMT May Max HD can not find more than a handful of HD channels. I have a Bell 18 inch dish with 2 LNBs and have tried different settings as well as cannel scan, blind scan, also reloading the file, no luck. Can anyone help please?

zagros Silver Member Username: Zagros Post Number: 385 Registered: Apr-06	Posted on Monday, February 28, 2011 - 20:10 GMT The signal is good. I don't think that is the problem.
Plymouth Platinum Member Username: Plymouth Canada Post Number: 16004 Registered: Jan-08	Posted on Monday, February 28, 2011 - 20:31 GMT You can have Vertical signal good but Horizontal too low! Those channels are available or not? Are you talking about IKS?
zagros Silver Member Username: Zagros Post Number: 386 Registered: Apr-06	Posted on Monday, February 28, 2011 - 21:29 GMT I am taking about IKS. Here are some pictiures of the LNBs I am using. Do you know what type they are? And no plymouth, that is not the case. This is a picture of the LNBs I use, can you tell me what the settings for them should be?

Plymouth Platinum Member Username: Plymouth Canada Post Number: 16005 Registered: Jan-08	Posted on Monday, February 28, 2011 - 21:47 GMT OK for the LNB's but I don't know which satellites you are looking for and if those channels are available on the listing of your IKS provider! With these infos, it will be easier to answer! Is this a new problem or you have never taken these HD channels?
zagros Silver Member Username: Zagros Post Number: 389 Registered: Apr-06	Posted on Monday, February 28, 2011 - 22:01 GMT It dosent' have anything to do with provider or which sats I am serching. It can not find the HD Channels. 110, 119 are the sats I am looking at. Even with the factory bin the problem is the sam.
Plymouth Platinum Member Username: Plymouth Canada Post Number: 16006 Registered: Jan-08	Posted on Monday, February 28, 2011 - 22:24 GMT ???? Do you have the SK200 module necessary to get the HD channels from Dn?
zagros Silver Member Username: Zagros Post Number: 390 Registered: Apr-06	Posted on Monday, February 28, 2011 - 22:27 GMT Yes I do. As I said I can get just a few of the hd s mostly ppv. I think the problem is LNB settings.
Plymouth Platinum Member Username: Plymouth Canada Post Number: 16007 Registered: Jan-08	Posted on Monday, February 28, 2011 - 23:03 GMT Post your setting for each satellite(110-119) LNB type, LNB Freq, Tp Freq etc
zagros Silver Member Username: Zagros Post Number: 391 Registered: Apr-06	Posted on Monday, February 28, 2011 - 23:10 GMT Well, I think that is the problem. I tried Different settings, but in most cases there is signal for the SD but no signal for HD transponders exept for one or two of them.

Plymouth Platinum Member Username: Plymouth Canada Post Number: 16009 Registered: Jan-08	Posted on Monday, February 28, 2011 - 23:55 GMT Most of HD channels are on 110W and work fine with a 18"!

zagros Silver Member Username: Zagros Post Number: 392 Registered: Apr-06	Posted on Monday, February 28, 2011 - 23:58 GMT Chaf, it was originally used by Bell for 82 and 91. If Bell is using that dish for thier customers, it should be good enough. I am not home right now to mesure it again but it might be 20 inch.
Chaff Silver Member Username: Chaff Post Number: 590 Registered: Jan-10	Posted on Tuesday, March 01, 2011 - 00:00 GMT sure they do .. but if you try to make that 18' into a dish 500 you will have problems. playmouth, surprised you haven't told the op to reboot yet..you fookin retard

Zagros The Bell dish work fine on 110 and 119, the only problem is with the lower transponder frequencies on Anik F3 118.8W which need a special LNB! I took 129W with a 18" in Quebec without any problem!
Chaff Silver Member Username: Chaff Post Number: 591 Registered: Jan-10	Posted on Tuesday, March 01, 2011 - 00:29 GMT Theres only a handful of transponders that have hd content... one @ 119w TP 12311 @110 12311 12399 12457 12846 all have symbol rate of 21500 AND FEC 2/3
